Yet another FAQ, without a doubt.

Does anyone have a graph widget that will do multiple line and/or bar
graphs on the one surface?  I am looking for fairly basic
business-type graphics.

I have seen graph.tar.Z from trix.ai.mit.edu (as named in the X FAQ
list).  It seems OK, but only one line graph at a time, and no bar
graphs (from what I can tell; there is no documentation...)

What would be ideal is the ability to have a hierarchy of widgets,
with a container widget that is the graph, does the scaling etc and
there is one child for each dataset on the graph.  This would allow
setting line colors/styles  etc as resources without imposing fixed
limits on the numbr of data items (I think...).

Greg.
